Hmmmmmm.....Actually I once wrote a love story and pass it for essay to my teacher *face palm* she's so nice since she didn't gave me an F.
Violence sometimes don't really have to be written in graphic action scenes I assume? A bruise on hand, a really fresh wound that appear mysteriously and things like that.
I don't know if this would be an appropriate propose, but I think bullying or discrimination might be a good start point at least,since it's for the lit class. This is almost like the You know who/what in school. It's going on silently, everyone knows about it, few actually seen it, but everyone fears it and there will be victims whether they like it or not(and no one likes it) also it got a depth that defiantly worth digging around.

@Pieeee
Yeah, I'm just a sucker for action.

Thank you! It's a good start, I'll look into it!

@MadisonFae
Glad I can help!

I can't remember exactly how long I've been writing, but the earliest known record/story that I've been told about me writing any sort of story was when I was in kindergarten. One account says that it was a story about me sailing on a boat with my father (even though I never have sailed and it was probably because he was in the Navy on a submarine, so being a kid I must've mistook a sub for a boat...), but my brain recalls the story being about a family of hearts. Dunno which was the real one. :T

Currently, I'm in the process of two-ish projects. One being a kind of dystopian cyberpunk tale (which got inspired by things like Deus Ex: Human Revolution and the Metal Gear series) where the city- currently unnamed- is under the tyrannical rule of a sole company known as Angelus. Angelus is known for making a kind of serum known as "biotics" that- in essence- improve humans by giving them some sort of enhanced ability, be it greater strength, adept at a certain skill, or something that you'd see from X-Men like telekinesis. But there's also people that are created completely from that serum as well, so they're their own breed/species of being.

The project is split into three sections. The first one focuses on the leader of an underground group of rebels named Mordecai who originally worked for Angelus, but defected later on down the line. He hasn't been able to get close to the CEO of Angelus to deal damage, so he's kind of stuck. The second part- which needs an awful lot of polishing- brings in Nero, a cyborg, and the third part- which also needs a lot of polishing- brings in a spec ops soldier by the name of Faith.

My second-ish project is a horror/mystery... um... thing. I'm deciding on whether or not to make it a comic or just write it out. |D; But it's based on a dream I had years ago that where an escaped convict comes across a girl that looks like the girlfriend he had murdered and he's looking for answers. The dream ended really weird, but I liked the entire concept and I modified it slightly.

It's still the same basic premise of the escaped convict- now named Austin Gardener- coming across a girl that looks suspiciously like his girlfriend- named Destinee Caprice- that he is certain he had killed. The run in causes him to wonder if he really did kill her and, before that, he wonders WHY he killed her. All Austin remembers after killing her is saying that "she had to die" to the police that had come into the scene years ago, but he believes that to be complete bullsh*t. So his main goal is to find out who that girl really is and why he killed his girlfriend. However, he does have an obstacle to face: a strange young man by the name of Ian. Ian... is a character and a half. He knows a lot more than he lets on, taunts and teases Austin at every possible moment, and is just an all-around malicious person to be near.

There's also some side-stories/side-plots with other characters: a rookie police cop who is convinced that something is fishy with Austin's confession, a pair of paranormal investigators that are brother and sister that are drawn to the weirdness of the city that Austin lives in, and Destinee herself.

... Wow. That got wordy. Sorry. |>;

I could really use a topic/inspiration for a new poem ;3;

@SenSparda20
Oh goodness!~ v uv Don't worry of it, love, it happens!~ When you must write, you /must/ write!~
I wish you sure luck on your projects though. I've seen a lot of cool genre-punk stuff lately, Steampunk and cyberpunk and others, and I think it's a really cool genre to focus in on. c: As for horror, I'm right there with 'ya, writing me a horror novel, myself. v uv

@SoullessRogue
Heyo~! Good 'ta meet 'cha~! v uv
Ah, yess, Fanfiction. I've been on AO3 mostly though, I like it there a lot. c:
As for inspiration, I wish I could hand some out, but I'm exhausted and have absolutely none, I am so sorry.~ xD <3

@HijackTheJackal

It's fine :3 I'm prying ideas out of my other friends too XD

@SoullessRouge
Why don't write something about your flight? I'm sure there will be at least something in the shadow that will worth your ink and imagination.

I used to write a lot in school. Words would just flow freely from my pencil, and though not exactly great, I was rather proud of my writing. I have no idea what, but something happened, and I haven't been able to write as before anymore. I can no longer get past writing a few sentences without feeling stuck and frustrated. I have to think for several minutes to find the words to describe something, then decide that it's rubbish and not write it down at last. Thoughts get jumbled up and what seemed like a concrete idea in my head doesn't seem to make sense the moment I start writing.

I know this is an obstacle I will have to overcome, but it's just depressing to see what I've become - a ghost of my former self.

Sorry for the vent-y post ._.;;;

@HarlequinCr0w
Worry not! :O Totally understandable, writing can be really hard~
